I am not sure what the culprit could be but you should download "better battery stats" or "wakelock detector" to find out what is truly draining your battery. The battery stats that come in the settings menu for android really don't offer too much insight.

Hope this suggestion helps!!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] itesla:
A co-worker had mentioned one of these apps to me a while back and I am investigating using them now. I have an AT&T S4, no root, stock ROM with NovaPrime Launcher.

Is this right?

-PDAnet was a USB only tether app, now it is combined with FoxFi

-FoxFi is a WiFi tether app

-ES File Explorer NetManager tool - this just turns on the builtin Android HotSpot

My Experience so far:

-FoxFi (free) did not work well for me. It worked breifly, I was able to download SpeedTest app and then lost connection and haven't gotten it back since.

-FoxFi today popped up the Android host spot setting and a message from AT&T that I need to call 611

-So I found out about ES FileExplorer NetManager and it seems to be working great, 2Gbps download and works while my phone is in standby(screen off)

-ES is also popping up the call 611 message now though

Remaining questions:

-does the 611 message mean that AT&T is going to start charging me for hotspot? Or do they even still charge for hotspot?

-I have AT&T unlimited data, has anyone determined if there is a limit on how much data or time you can use hotspot without AT&T detecting it or making you pay?

-Is there a widget to quickly turn on/off the setting in ESFileExplorer?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
Does anyone happen to know exactly which settings we are supposed to have? Is it different per area of country? I am in New York City and the NJ markets and I know my LTE does work, I have seen good speeds in spots and horrible speeds in others. I keep messing with all the settings and I can't remember which ones work the best. I had decent speeds this morning but then I went and changed something and now my speeds are back to being very slow. I also noticed that the band priority does not stick, as suggested by someone on this forum, I tried setting priority for band 41>25>26 but it always makes band 25 the first priority.

LTE/GSM/CDMA auto(PRL) or LTE/CDMA auto (PRL)?

Network Mode: LTE or Global?

Enable band 41 & 26 or leave them disabled?

I have been switching around these settings so much and I think they sometimes change on their own so I never know which is the proper setting. I am also getting very slow LTE in NYC but when I was up in Northern NJ yesterday I was getting 20Mbps down in Wayne NJ. This morning I was getting between 5-10 down in Manhattan and then I changed something and speeds went back down to .50 down. I think I changed settings back to what they were but speeds are not reflecting this.

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattrb:
NYC has crap speeds according to several on forum. Chicago is fine. Enable the bands if you live in region on the spark list.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
NYC is on the spark list, no? That is why I can't believe how slow the network is...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krylon360:
enable all 3 bands,

25 = 0

26 = 0

41 = 1

Change mode from Global to LTE

LTE/CDMA Auto
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
Thanks

That is how I had it setup and was getting horrific download speeds in Manhattan, like .20 to .50 Mbps. I tried changing around some more and not getting any consistent results. Will revert back to your settings and just leave it like that and hope LTE gets better here.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
Just an FYI, I had changed to these settings a few days ago and they have all changed on their own. I think a PRL or Profile update had changed it back to LTE/GSM/CDMA and changed from LTE to Global. Also the priorities of all the bands have also changed after I edited them but I am not sure what caused the change.

So these settings are definitely not sticking after I change them.

[HTC Wildfire S] krogon:
Hello,

I was using Marvellous Sense 3.5 ROM with increased internal memory by int2extv2.

But I like CyanogenMod on other phone, where many more things could be customized so I have installed this ROM: [rom][unofficial][4.2.2][cm10.1] with Gapps, which is working fine. However after installing int2extv2 nothing happens.

Using RootBrowser I found that autorun file (/etc/init.d/40int2ext) is empty. I tried to remove that file and copy/paste from SD card. But the result is the same (file is created with 0 size). Then I connected to phone with adb shell where I found that the filesystem is read-only, so I decided to make the same things in recovery.

In recovery using adb shell I mounted system blokdevice (read-write), but I was not able to create 40int2ext file (not enough space). I deleted one ringtone and finally 40int2ext script was created (This probably is not the right method, because right now adb shows "unauthorized" device).

After reboot my device shows more internal memory, but I am not able to install any app (no more space). What is the reason? Read-only system? I tried some other 4.2 android ROM, but I was not able to enable int2ext scritp. Does Android 4.2 is compatible with int2ext script?

Sorry about this long post. Tried to post under ROM thread, but I have no enough post written :)
[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
which Gapps did you flash??
[HTC Wildfire S] krogon:
Firstly sorry for wrong link. Name of ROM is correct, but LINK is redirecting to another one. I have installed this ROM: [rom][unofficial][4.2.2][cm10.1] (25.10.2013)

About Gapps version: 20130812 (from http://goo.im/gapps it is correct for CM10.1 and Android 4.2)
[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
That's what you did wrong...... Internal storage of our phones isn't big enough for the complete gapps package for Android 4.1 and above, use a stripped down version of them found in the thread
[HTC Wildfire S] krogon:
You are right, I missed that thing. Now it is working. Thanks.

BTW. Do you know what is the difference between gapps-jb-20130301-lite.zip (34,5MB) and gapps-jb-20130301-light.zip (8.26MB)?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meyhemg:
Hi everyone

I wanted to ask you a question.

In short: Are Kies and OTA are connected? I mean if Kies reports it doesn't support my firmware so I won't get OTAs too?

Detailed: I flashed two weeks ago the German stock rom DBT for I9505 (MJ5).

The reason I did that is because I couldn't get updates via Kies with the last firmware, I had:

PDA: ME2, PHONE: ME2, CSC: MDB(BTU)

I understood ME2 stands for Nordic countries and the product code (BTU) is for England so I couldn't get updates through Kies.

I flashed the German stock rom via Odin and all went OK but afterwards when I connected the device to Kies I still had BTU in CSC:

PDA: MJ5, PHONE: MJ5, CSC: MJ5(BTU)

My question is why is it like that? Wasn't the CSC supposed to change to DBT?

And so the main question: Will this interfere me to get OTA updates from Germany when they will be out? Because Kies still keeps saying that it doesn't support my firmware.

Thanks in advance

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a40:
No we need same pda and csc...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaswinky:
I mean, when I updated to JB4.3 from 4.2.2 and rooted my phone, The knox counter incresed to 0x1; this was the reason I allways have thought OTA and kies updates notifications will never work again.

Anyway, In my case I can no more update by OTA or kies because I rooted the phone in 4.3 (or better, because of the knox counter increasing), but for buckups and so on I can use it normally, except I had to download kies version 3, the only kies version compatible with S4 JB 4.3, maybe you still have kies version 2.

[General Questions and Answers] cas99:
I have spent several days searching for MAC specific instructions for unlocking Sony XPERIA Neo V bootloader. The few examples I found were incomplete, and lacked active links to software.

Perhaps the various references would work for someone who has a deep understanding of computer systems. But I do not.

I am quite new to android operating systems. My only mod experience has been a Dell Mini Hackintosh.

I follow instructions well, but do not have any texhnical basis from which to infer steps.

Is there a thread which actually goes from start to finish on a MAC and Xperia Neo V?

For example: Where to insert the Sony code boot loader unlock code?

Or is there someone who will answer basic questions if there is no thread?

This would be very, very much appreciated.

If that's not working for you, then you need to retry the download. If it continues to be corrupt, then you need to try a better network. :)

I've sent people to Panera and Starbucks to fix problems they're having with getting good downloads.

The only other reason for the download from that thread to fail is when you're not on a MI1 build when you start. You can't flash MI1 on anything later.

You flashed the wrong software for your phone, and must find an image that matches your phone or use the recovery assistant to repair it.

You can't go backwards. I.e. flashing MDK on a ME2 phone.

You can't install custom recovery other than on MDK.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pointdooly:
I have almost 21 months old AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717.

ROM: Padawan JB V2 || 4.1.2| 5|31

It was working FINE past 21 months without any single problem. I had kept like NEW condition - no major drop accidents, case from day 1.

Without NO Reason, it just died 2 days ago.

- My phone was running just a bit slow last week and few strange losing Bluetooth connection during calls.

- My original OEM battery was swollen a bit.(Again, tried with other battery to fix the current situation and new battery is on its way for another try.)

Here is the current terrible condition::crying::crying::crying:

1. Won't Boot to OS, it just splash Samsung logo and blank screen

I had tried to go into recovery mode by using hold Power & Vol button => Failed

(I went into the recovery mode menu only ONCE from almost 10-20 times tries but lost power again as soon as menu showed up.)

2. Won't Charge, it just keeps pulsing with blank screen

I had tried remove battery and put it back.=> Still Same

I had borrowed exactly same working battery(from other phone) and tried to boot or boot into the recovery mode=> Still Same

=> This process diagnosis to me that it is NOT the battery problem.(BRAND NEW Battery is on its way.)

I had tried remove battery first, connect power charger(OEM charger) and put battery back based on one of post that I found.

=> Again, just splash the screen of battery charge for 1 seconds then goes blank screen with pulsing again.

NOW, this is the situation and options I could think of...

A. I REALLY DO wants turning on at least once to back up the latest data from phone's memory(eMMC).

(My last backup was 2 months ago, but has 2 months of new data(specially photos of my 2 yr. old daughter):crying:

B. Wish to keep the phone. But worst case, might be time to upgrade since it will cost something I am guessing.

C. Any repair/data backup service estimates along with suggestion of vendors/repair center?

Here are questions that I have now...

Q1. Does it sound/look repairable from this Sudden Death like symptom?

Q2. Is there any way to back up data at current situation without OS turned on?

Q3. How does all possible future attempts by using Recovery mode, Kies of flashing to data?

Doesn't any of these erase my data? (I DO need Pros confirmation on this before I perform anything from now.)

Q4. I read some "sticky power button" which I NEVER see symptom of button problem.

(Few repair tips like CRC one conductive type spray cleaning or replacement parts and video)

Does it seem like my problem?

I am not positive on this button issue on mine based on my last uses that all buttons were working fine until it died.

- my personal opinion seems like main logic board related problem.

:crying: Please help me specially to BACK UP the DATA at least.

PLEASE PLEASE! :crying:
